Young mutants on the run and rebelling against the X-Men?

In Once and Future Mutants we pondered the fate of the most current class of mutants students (Tempus, Triage, Goldballs, Hijack and Morph) and past “new” mutants that didn’t make it to front burner fandom.

With Marvel‘s November previews we know one Generation Hope graduate and a Jean Grey School alum are officially part of the All-New, All-Different Marvel Now this Fall.

Oya and Evan is on the run with the All-New X-Men (young Iceman, Beast, Angel and X-23) in issue three.

Heading to a club this weekend? You may see the mutant rapper Kid Apocalypse! I met this creative cosplayer at Emerald City Comicon and later learned he was shooting a mutant rap video which I shared last week.

Kid Apocalypse is a great rapper and knows his X-Men history. Before the ECCC video the Kid and Beast made this video Kid Apocalypse Rising. Listen for the classic music track Kid raps over! Enjoy:

Yes, that’s the theme from the X-Men Animated Series from the 90’s.

Thanks Kid Apocalypse and Mongrel Studios!
